The Macedonia International Airport is the third in the list of busiest airport in Greece. Currently, it can accommodate up to 4 million passengers per year, and there is a plan to upgrade this airport into a bigger airport which can accommodate more than twice the number of passengers up till now.

Apart from these, tourists should keep an eye on the promotions available, such as promotions by the government to promote tourism which is seasonal.

However, it is always desirable to plan much ahead of time.
